Younger Smith Islander (13-year-old female)


Audio:


Well, it's this real wacky boy around here. His name is Keith, and-- he-- once he, it was a girl named Flora a-coming from Harry's. It was about eleven o'clock, and, um, and he went home, and he put on this, well they said it was a wedding gown, but it weren't. He put it, a sheet, put sheets over it and curtains and all and made it look like a ghost. And he went-- it was real dark out, and she's, I don't know, a little crazy sometimes. And, um, she was walking home from Harry's, and, uh, Harry's is near the graveyard. And he was standing in the graveyard, and when she walked by he followed her, he just followed her. And when she got home, she went in the house and locked the door and all. And about one o'clock, she went back out there to see if it was still there. And she looked through the graveyard. He's standing in the graveyard looking down at the graves, looking-- he's crazy.
